There are also some mental imagery exercises to assist you with controlling the aircraft that the instructors will go over with you that you can do at home in your spare time.

Thank you for visiting us. As of November 2017 we will no longer be trading as NQ UAV and will continue as FlyFreely. Combined with this change of name is a change of direction with the company. We have made the decision to discontinue our contract drone services.

We believe that the future of drones is in your hands, and that is why we have developed FlyFreely. We want to make drone usage available to everyone through facilitating a safe, quick, and cost effective process. Basically, we want to enable drones for everyone. If this sounds like a good fit for your business, let us know! We would love to hear from you and discuss how you want to use drones in your business.

Alternatively, if you would rather get someone else in for your flights, that is OK too. We will connect you with other drone pilots on FlyFreely who are specialists in their field. You can still reach us on (07) 4402 4069 at any time, and we have made the jump to a new website: www.flyfreely.io

Thanks for all your help and support over the years. We have thoroughly enjoyed working with you and sincerely hope to continue to do so in to the future!
